PLACEMENTS
We accept emergency, short, medium and long term placements of UASC 16+ via any UK local authority.
All emails and phone messages will be responded to within the hour. We aim to make a decision on the same day; however this process might involve meeting the young person and decisions may take between 24-72 hours. Each referral will be assessed by our own admission panel; Enthum House Manager, a member of the Enthum Foundation senior management team and if necessary, a translator.
This will take place in conjunction with the placing authority ensuring that we can meet the needs of the young person and consider any risks posed to both that individual and that of those already living or working in Enthum House.
The YP referred to us must be deemed to be 16+.
We recognise that many unaccompanied minors may arrive with little or no information and in this instance, expect the placing social worker to make the initial judgment as to the likely age, history and needs of the young person.
Should you wish to visit Enthum House, either with a young person or as a professional, then do get in touch.
